The 10 Best Saddle Stirrups

video play icon

This wiki has been updated 17 times since it was first published in November of 2018. It's hard to have a comfortable ride if your saddle has unbearable stirrups. The options on this list are easy to stay in all day, thanks to their spacious interiors, padded treads, and durable sides. We included several that are angled to take pressure off your knees, as well as some with thick inserts to cushion your feet, so you can stay on your horse as long as you'd like. When users buy our independently chosen editorial picks, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

1. ProRider Sloped

2. Royal King Endurance

3. Tough 1 Angled

Editor's Notes

December 03, 2018:

Comfort and durability were the two factors we looked at most, as the list is geared towards users who spend lots of time in the saddle, rather than the occasional hobbyist. Still, the selections included should be suitable for most any situation.
